A garage makeover that adds a living room vibe

What if you could make your garage a more integrated part of your home? Still with secondary storage and a care-and-repair corner, but cosier and more accessible for everyday activities? Well, you can! Step inside and have a look.

Organise like you have superpowers

When rearranging a garage – or basement, or another space that deserves a comfort upgrade – aim to feel like you have X-ray vision. With doorless shelving and see-through boxes, that’s precisely what you get: everything visible at a glance, identified and in your hands a moment later.

A station for home preservation

Few feats are more rewarding than repairing things that otherwise may have been thrown out. This wall section is dedicated to these uplifting chores. The combination of BROR shelving and other units, pegboards and lighting forms a home-improvement corner that adjusts to any task, big or small.

Useful and meaningful

Fixing flat tyres, mending a chair seat, repurposing a side table – here’s your ally for prolonging life for your belongings. Use the sturdy BROR trolley to hold tools and accessories close and maximise mobility around your project, before you roll it away just as easy as you started.

Wellness on a shelf (and a few hooks)

Finding time and especially space for a yoga pause or gym break can be quite the challenge. Not here. Set up in a minute and stowed away just as quick, this self-care spot all but erases excuses. A plant or three will help to bring some extra zen.

On a cosier note

Time for the final layer in this transition, going from a room for secondary storage to a place of comfort. Add select details – dimmable lighting, LED candles, the soothing hum of an air purifier, maybe an unexpected patch of FEJKA plants – and you suddenly have a spot where relaxation is the status quo.
